lyrics

Organize my distance
No I won’t be home fro christmas

The russian rain was falling on the golden arch
I felt your interest fading through the wire
And the gypsy kept on playin’ his nylon string guitar
All the way from moscow to new york
And I watch the dirty river roll by
And I dedicate this feeling to the ones in my life
And I watch the dirty river roll by
And they medicate the culture so you’re high and dry
And you don’t get your money back kid

They said the sky was falling and they played the hits
She was born in 1980 from a Cold War kiss
She said “I believe in something but I don’t know why
My parents felt the same but they’d never admit it”

And I watch the dirty river roll by
And I dedicate this feeling to the ones in my life
And I watch the dirty river roll by
And they medicate the culture so you’re high and dry
And you don’t get your money back kid

I would’ve liked to been there but I waited so damn long
And I had a funny feeling you were gone

She said the twin towers was an inside job
The boys went to the desert and we partied in a wartime fog
And the gypsy kept on playing his nylon string guitar
All the way from moscow to new york

And I watch the dirty river roll by
And I dedicate this feeling to the ones in my life
And I watch the dirty river roll by
And they medicate the culture so you’re high and dry
And you don’t get your money back kid

You’ll never get your money back kid

Organize my distance
No I won’t be home fro christmas

I love this entire album. Every track is a winner. The album is well mixed. It sounds great on my computer's stereo sound system. It is almost as good as the sound quality of my vinyl record sound system. And Jesse's voice has never sounded more powerful and confident. Definitely a Five-Star album. dansp
